Nevada Humane Society has found itself with dozens of rescued rabbits who need forever homes. So, as mentioned earlier this week in a press release posted on the blog, rabbit adoption fees have been dropped to $19 through Monday. The no-kill animal shelter calls the event "the Great Bunny Ranch Rescue."

Dennis Hof, owner of the Moonlite Bunny Ranch in Moundhouse, outside Carson City, saw the release and through a spokesman said he was "honored they would use our name to help rescue these bunnies and we've got to help out. That's what we do is help the community whenever we can."

Toward that end, the Bunny Ranch will pay the adoption fee for the first 20 rabbits who are adopted.
